NEW YORK, March 31, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM
today announced the launch of "The Perri Peltz Show," a weekly show
featuring veteran journalist, filmmaker and SiriusXM host
Perri Peltz, discussing the issues
that are most relevant to working women and mothers, ranging from
their personal challenges to how these issues affect society at
large. The show will provide a forum where listeners and
accomplished guests can explore, not only what the world expects
from women, but also what women expect from
themselves.
"The Perri Peltz Show" will air Tuesdays at 11:00 am ET on SiriusXM Stars, channel 106 and
through the SiriusXM Internet Radio App on smartphones and other
connected devices, as well as online at siriusxm.com. It will
replay on Tuesdays at 6:00 pm ET.
The launch of the weekly, one-hour show will feature seasoned
editor, media maven, and author Tina
Brown as its first guest. Tina will talk with Perri about
her much publicized career leading some of the most iconic
magazines, including Vanity Fair and The
New Yorker, her upcoming memoir spanning her years in media,
and this week's Women in the World summit, the annual
event she co-hosts offering a stage for women of all walks of
life to share their stories of travails and bravery, stretching
from war zones to Washington, and
urging women everywhere to get involved and affect
change.
"I want this show to be an open forum where smart, dynamic women
can come together and share their opinions about the issues that
matter most to us, both in our personal lives and our public,
working lives," said Perri Peltz.
"It's about highlighting the inspiring stories of women who are
reinventing what it means to be a woman in today's world."
"Perri is a media veteran who brings a world of experience and
knowledge to a radio show unlike anything in radio today:
intelligent talk and conversation with women leaders from various
fields," said Scott Greenstein.
"Perri's approachable style will be a wonderful asset for listeners
wanting to know more about big issues affecting women today."
"The Perri Peltz Show" will be a forum to bring to the table
problems affecting women and possible solutions. The topic range
will be broad, from career successes to challenges both in the home
and in the workplace, as well as issues related to poverty, health,
ending violence against women and increasing opportunities to place
women on the road to greater positions of power.
